mushroom 12,871 Posted August 3, 2023 Report Share Posted August 3, 2023 Was reading about this, apparently it went nuts lol. My question is why? Was it an unstable dog? (Many questions follow that one). Was it a bad handler? Or was it just just a bad match between the both? Or maybe she was a crack fiend and the dog did it’s job Either way it’s not a good show.

Some police dog handlers don't like the belgium shepherd , because they can be slow to release when they get hold of a suspect Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My mate has just got a job in the dog squad with the Police. The dog he was given was a Belgian Mali rescued from a puppy farm. Dog was alright until it turned and bit him badly, was then failed off the programme. A lot of Belgian Mali's are known for similar I believe, they get wound up (too much go in them) and from the frustration re-direct and bite the handler. You couldn't gift me one of them things. We also have lots of these dogs being bred by idiots who have no business owning them, breeding the wrong qualitites thinkig its great to have a go that'll go out and bite and be a loonatic, where in reality (especially in Police dog work I would think), 99% of the time you just want a dog that's a deterrant and doesn't bite, and a dog with a cool head that can switch it on and off when needed. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I forgot to say, I told my mate I thought it was unbelievable that they weren't breeding and running on their own pups so they can get dogs in with good backgrounds and stable dogs. He said it costs too much. They buy some in from 'facilities' and certain places, then they also rescue some and just give them a go and then see if they pass the assessment. After the initial dog failed the programme, my mate was given a Dutch Shephard and only had it 2 weeks. This one came from one of the 'facilities' and passed the Police assessment first time after only 2 weeks with him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
